With the new vampire bat robot designed to walk and fly, using both modes of motion in a very complex way, we got one step closer to reaching new milestones. The robot technology evolves at a tremendous speed, but there are still many milestones to be passed.

The DALER – Deployable Air-Land Exploration Robot – is a very innovative device. Its creators, a team of researchers from the National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) Robotics division in Switzerland, developed the drone as a way of helping rescue teams in dangerous natural catastrophes.
